The Martyrdom of Saint Thomas is a 1634 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at Rosenwald Collection.
This black-and-white print shows a chaotic scene. A group of people is gathered around a building with tall columns. Some are standing, some are kneeling, and one person is lying on the ground. Above them, a figure floats in the air, holding a cross. The artist used sharp lines to show movement and drama. The scene looks busy but is drawn with careful detail. Want to see more?
